I'm gonna need some hosting + domain for a project. I got the domain, godaddy has a sale on em.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Anyway, I'm onto the hosting part now. I'm thinking of getting the Personal hosting which is 5 bucks a month. I kust want to know if anyone had experience with this hosting before and if there's any catch.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Thanks in advance.

You will get real advice here not to mention you can also search user reviews on diffrent hosts.

Thanks, I'll do that.

If you want a great host, i'd suggest http://www.webhostfreaks.com - they're a bit more expensive, but the server and service is just exelent, have been there for 8 months now, and haven't had one problem that weren't resolved esily - for the most part i was the reason for the problems, but they helped me anyways :D Great staff, and very very state of the art servers :D

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

If you're willing to pay extra for greatness, go with them :)

I haven't heard of dot5 so I can't comment on them, but site5.com and hostgator.com generally get great reviews and have very helpful support.

Thanks for the info guys. Anyway, I made my choice and went with http://cirtexhosting.com Fits most of my need (and budget) and has very good reputation in the WHT forums.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Other sites I found that might work for others are

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

http://www.hostgator.com/

 

 

 

http://www.site5.com/

 

 

 

http://www.lunarpages.com/

 

 

 

http://www.wirenine.com/

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

^ - Decent reputation for service and great reviews from the Web Hosting Talk forums.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Dot5Hosting had a pretty bad rep so I looked up others.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Can any tech peeps let me add them on MSN just in case I need help? :P

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

@Ryan: Yeah, I saw those sites too at the WHT and considered them but I thought about it and decided that I don't really need 3 gigs of space.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Oh and I considered this http://www.webhostingbuzz.com/index.htm but 1 dollar for 1 gig is bit TOO unreal for me; and that I can't find anything about them on WHT.

Looks like you made a good decision :).

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Webhostingbuzz is obviously overselling and I would not recommend them then.
